Title: My woodworking tools
Post by: bonneyman on March 28, 2023, 03:28:34 PM

Not a woodworker at all, but I gotta have some stuff to do things around the house. And I pick up the occasional tool from sales I go to. Figured I'd post my meager collection here.

A pair of hand saws I inherited from my FIL. A Craftsman and a Disston.

Some claws hammers and a Husky square. Various tools such as a door lifter, chalk line, plomb bob, and corner level. Also my collection of chisels and reamers.

And some tree tools. Bow saw, axe and hatchet, and two jab saws.

How about a pole saw to complete the tree set?

I believe I have one tucked away - can't remember if the blade is broken or not.

I have this older SKIL 7 1/4" circular saw from the 70's in it's trademark orange. Got it from my wife's uncle's estate. Replaced all the bushings, cleaned and lubed, and it still runs today.
